hanzsu is it better to play with a team btw?
cos earlier i killed a fully kitted guy when i had trash gear and when i tried to loot him i got rolled up on by his two teamamtes
and i died but still managed to kill one more
inland shoal
playing with a team depends on you
if you think you would benefit from other people you probably would
tepid fossil
@drifting kernel yes and no
Yes because it’ll make the game easier and no because of the sane reason
drifting kernel
its just cos ive killed like 5 people who had amazing loot just to get killed by their other 2 teammates
like id probably do best solo or with one other person
tepid fossil
Better of learning solo’s first
drifting kernel
yea
tepid fossil
There are times where you need to solo
drifting kernel
also im kinda pissed cos i bought the game and two days later it goes on sale

What if your teammate dies what are you gonna do
Panic and die.
And darn yeah that’s unlucky

buy a TT and go into the pumping station

what map do you think is good for that?
dense gazelle
i literally just started, what should i do with my money?
tacit dome
ah yes old gas
i would say buy nothing just yet
go into offline raids and get to know the map and extracts first
you could do it online too but that would become hectic

and do scav raids
tacit dome
always do scav raids whenever you can
but getting to know the maps and the gunplay is most important
main river
yes
dense gazelle
cheers

offline mode is your friend
but if i go to old gas station with just a pistol wont they instantly chase me down?
main river
@neat tendon whag i did to get money is go in as a scav on customs, wait until about 15min left in raid, then go into three story dorms building and pick up all the scraps from dead people then extract
tacit dome
nothing much to lose tbh
main river
@tacit dome nah go into factory
tacit dome
do they go to where u are?
main river
that works

and i sold my pumping station key lel

or just rush office and put all of the safe loot in your alpha

safe wouldnt be that profitable tbh
getting guns and selling them would prob be more profitable

old gas station always has 2-3 scavs
then you sniper scav, a few scavs at new gas station, 2-3 scavs at construction, 2-3 scavs at roadblock and a lot at dorms

yh generally my character usually spawns top of the river so I rush dorms then dip out before hitting scav spots

if you spawn on west side it might be worth to go to the factory there often 2-3 scavs as well

i wanna kiss the labs so hard rn
but too broke
but i just got a card for it
so lets go
woke up, its 3 am
i think thats a sign
wanton gyro
keycard prices are high

my brains not fully woken up tho
idc whenever i egt them, i do labs
gonna doa offline run first tho
man style
limber nacelle
yea customs do be like that
yesterday i spotted reshala and his minions all couped up in that field by gas
like standing shoulder to shoulder
i enabled pvp but not boss scavs in offline mode
does that mean raiders wont spawn in labs
wanton gyro
pretty sure raiders don't count as boss scavs
limber nacelle
nvm they do spawn lmfao
wanton gyro
raiders in small numbers are easy enough

raiders are stupid
i killed 10 ish and got hit once
going in fr now
i found some of the extracts
sewer and vent are my go tos for now

you can't take a backpack through vent tho
I usually run across main or medical elevators
I try to spend as much time as possible in the basement layer because I have no keycards
limber nacelle
FOUND THE garage exit
opened it
does it stay open forever
or do i have to reopen when i wanna ex
mental mirage
it stays open forever
wanton gyro
I think they just spawn randomly around the extract
mental mirage
yeah and they dont always spawn when you hit the alarm
wanton gyro
I'm not fond of leaving through parking or garage because I can't cover everything by myself
limber nacelle
just died
somehow one of the scavs aimbotted me when all the others dont
oh well
wanton gyro
rip
I once practised like 5 offline runs killing shturman in woods then went in for real and died without shturman even spawning

yeah the raiders have better aim than most players
wanton gyro
slower tho

he just 1 tapped me thru one of the like
nipple tall bushes
where i couldnt see him
but he 1 tapped my ass
HOW common are hackers on labs?
spawned, ran off and heard steps
started sneaking, got into an ambush position
and lemme assure u theres no way he coulda known i was there, he prefires

I hear they're really common but I never see them
limber nacelle
so there are bulletholes on the thing in front of my hiding spot before he crossed the corner
that was so fishy but i dont like calling hacks
his name was "TY4UR_LOOOOT"
wanton gyro
tbf it's a sus name but not an unusual one
limber nacelle
im so sad
jk but its annoying learning labs
especially solo
but every raid (except that one) i learn something new
its just that its cost me 6m+ already 
wanton gyro
I've lost 5mil today/yesterday
limber nacelle
how
wanton gyro
labs and customs
limber nacelle
im going to do t4 body t3 helm and medium kitted ak runs now
450k ish including card to enter
should be enough to kill raiders
wanton gyro
you're taking aks into labs?
wanton gyro
you can get an as val/vss, mp5 or mp7 for cheap
limber nacelle
fun yes, but i can buy a gun for the price of that ammo
i am very confident with this ak build tho
its my favorite, ran it a ton
wanton gyro
which ak
wanton gyro
it's an 80k gun with super cheap sp-5
mental mirage
yeah
wanton gyro
30 mags are like 30k a piece tho
limber nacelle
^
mental mirage
just take spare ammo in container and fill the mags
wanton gyro
a fully modded ak is like 200k?

ooth
limber nacelle
yea that gun with the butt pad is cheap as hell and super effective
i like it, tho its not everyones cuppa tea
mental mirage
u should run igolnik with it
mental mirage
bs is good also
mental mirage
if u play labs u should just use igolnik
glass cloud
You asked for a cheaper option
For 545 there is nothing inbetween Bt and Bs
762 Aks can use BPs nicely
Not too expensive and penetration is nice
limber nacelle
@wanton gyro bs>bt>bp>ps imo
tho i never run igolnik so i cant place it
but its really good
mental mirage
if u are running bs just start running igolnik
plucky holly
Igolnik is basically best pen
Bs is second best but higher damage
I would prefer BS though
plucky holly
P much
olive turret
@limber nacelle gssh hurt my ears
fair edge
if you're choosing between BS and igolnik then isn't igolnik better to run since (A) you can craft it to save money, and (B) the price difference on flea is super tiny?
and from the looks of NoFAM's penetration tables, it looks like it makes a huge difference when fighting class 6
tepid fossil
Only reason to choose igolnik is if it’s cheaper than Bs
fair edge
but it's a 50 ruble difference per bullet
tepid fossil
Igolnik is overpen
fair edge
do we even know how overpen works? I've seen people throw the term around a lot, but I've never seen testing.
flat cipher
if its gross overpen, then the armour does nothing
like, snb into class 4
round just goes straight through, no dmg reduction
sage skiff
need help getting selwaes
tepid fossil
Kind of..? Only really gives a slight advantage over something like fort armor
Due to the increased damage of BS they’re practically the same
fair edge
hmmmm aight

But to be honest I run igolnik and bs
fair edge
when i decide to have fun with the RPK, i'll remember this info :)

wicked sphinx
hanzu your doing great sweetie.

as far as I can tell igolnik and bs perform the same against tanks bois, with bs edging it out a bit against less tank boi

they're literally the same it's just a matter of is igolnik currently cheaper or not

reee why are there so many trios in woods
tawdry burrow
whats the easiest way to increase strength? just spawn in with 100 nades and throw em?
undone oracle
Go to a map with a ton of raiders and bring some Nades and chuck them. Then kill the raiders and chuck all their nades too. Cause why not.
bold kernel
whos willing to teach me so much knowledge that it blows my brain into pieces?
naive atlas
@tawdry burrow easiest way would be to cheese it
undone oracle
and you saw what happened last time people cheesed things, they reset them. Don’t offer the man a poor solution @naive atlas
naive atlas
@undone oracle doesnt have to be using exploits, hitting friends over and over is also cheesing
Throwing nades to elite is so expensive that it's not realistic
undone oracle
If you cheese by hitting your friend you shouldn’t be playing this game. Earn things by playing the game, it really isn’t that hard lol.
naive atlas
@undone oracle because this is playable
the weight changes are fucked
btw i didnt cheese, but I really should because makes the game unplayable for people who pvp/kill raiders
undone oracle
Grinding strength only helps with that a tiny bit, you have to learn how to better manage loot on your player. What items are better value but not too heavy. You always want to be below 70 so you got a start there.
undone oracle
But nobody is that high with strength, not even level 70 players. Unless they cheese it. Which I mean you can cheese it, be my guest. But the weight changes don’t bother me, I get out with 69.9KG on reserve almost every run without dying.
undone oracle
But Tarkov is realistic. You can’t carry that much loot. It’s just how the game works. Just learn to deal with it like everyone else does. Cause we all want loot. You just have to get better at managing what’s worth the slots on your character. Like that destroyed TV rig wasn’t worth grabbing, will cost way to much to repair.
naive atlas
Skills are part of tarkov so the devs must expect that eventually people get elite strength right
So how is that realistic
Tarkov is not realistic, as others said its immersive
odd light
to be fair i dont like how much this game penalizes solo play
like there isnt a point in playing solo
u can only carry like 1 kill of loot
and killing scav boss is pointless because theres enough loot from him and his guards for like 3+ players
and because of this you see a lot of solo players just extract camping and waiting since they can just kill 1 player and leave
dire rock
@naive atlas how are skills unrealistic?
@odd light the benefit of solo play is that you are supposed to play stealth, you are one person you dont have the negative effects of having to coordinate with a team and even so killing 3 people with or without a team you get the same loot since you have to share with them
dire rock
due to strength training with that certain type of equipment your body becomes acustomed to having that weight therefore it doesnt affect you as much
same reason why you can only use your own body weight for so long, eventually your strong enough to pull your weight around and it doesnt help
think of our military training with 100lb backpacks
its to reduce the effect of that weight
naive atlas
Yea that's BS, at most it would increase the amount you can carry it wont make your 20-30KG weightless
dire rock
its the same effect either way, but they dont want to allow your character to carry 120KG
so they just make the weight of your normal gear essentially weightless
and considering how long it takes to get elite strength yeah that makes sense why your PMC would be that good with weight
wicked fiber
I feel like if they increased your weight cap as a reward for training strength, that would just encourage hatchet runs, no?
dire rock
^^
naive atlas
Having skills in a "realistic" game is just silly to me imo theres no point in having skills
naive atlas
Skills that affect hearing, stamina, running strenth is dumb
undone oracle
But that’s real life lol
naive atlas
PMC is supposed to be ex military already
wicked fiber
tbh i think its considered realistic with rpg elements anyways whenever i hear people talk about it
dire rock
thats all stuff you can train IRL
undone oracle
The more you put time and effort into something the better it becomes
Run more get better stamina
flat cipher
skills are fine, the levelling is awful, and the bonuses are too strong, and the base level is too weak.
a trained soldier can carry more than 60kg without being unable to breathe
dire rock
i feel like the bonuses arent that huge for how long they take
naive atlas
Idk I would be fine if they removed the skills and the elite skills are OP
flat cipher
max endurance lets you run for literally near 2 minutes without stopping
and then wait 5 seconds and your stamina is full
dire rock
inject yourself and you can do the same lol
ancient falcon
how do you change the black and white in thermal?
flat cipher
max strength lets you throw nades further than artillery and ignores the left side of your inventory for weight
its stupid strong
flat cipher
not very cause they suck at patching bugs
glass cloud
Check the bindings for changing your reticle
flat cipher
only reap does that @ancient falcon
dire rock
tarkov is meant to be a combat game based around realism so it makes sense why you can train your character to stupid levels
also its called being a beta for bugs
flat cipher
well yes
dire rock
and there arent many bugs anyway
ancient falcon
should make strength easy to level up since we have wipes
flat cipher
do you know their attempt at patching the reserve breach for cheesing??
flat cipher
when you breached the wall, you fell, which was counted as walking
except, they patched it by addinga floor
with no walls
dire rock
@ancient falcon agreed but you gotta be careful with that, since letting you level it too fast will make it a bit op
dire rock
i dont play reserve so i wouldnt know
little beacon
Im ~10 runs in and cannot get the hidden cargo
naive atlas
Should let arma devs know they should add skills to make it realistic
dire rock
but you cant point out the worst parts of a beta and consider that a fair estimate of the beta
naive atlas
All these milsims have it wrong need skills 
dire rock
at the end of the day this game is a gem, it has been very well developed and if you willingly buy it then speak about everything bad on it then your just being a pessimist
every game has its flaws and im usually very overjudgmental of games but the only flaws in this game are easily ignorable
wicked fiber
"Escape from Tarkov is a hardcore and realistic online first-person action RPG/Simulator with MMO features and a story-driven walkthrough."
naive atlas
No we are beta testing we can criticize it it's the whole point of beta testing
wicked fiber
^thats directly from the website, its not just a milsim
ancient falcon
It's for testing purposes. I don't think most of us have even seen how high strength feels like when playing

Anyone care to help me with my quest

how many wipes ago? @flat cipher

Literally your just bitching and complaining at this point
flat cipher
last patch
wicked fiber
true, but there's a more polite and constructive way of doing so if you actually care about the game
dire rock
saying something is shit isnt criticism its just negative feedback
ancient falcon
oh the glitch?
flat cipher
You can spawn opposite emercom on ic
ancient falcon
I thought you'd get banned for it so i never tried
dire rock
your not giving an opinion on how to improve the game
flat cipher
They dont need removing
flat cipher
they add something diffferent to a realistic ish game
but
the baseline, level 0 is too weak
and the max level is too strong
ancient falcon
shouldn't it be if it takes you so long to get there?
undone oracle
It needs better balancing more than anything. Not “removal” like wtf is that gonna fix.
little beacon
Shouldn't all this be in the complaints chat
ancient falcon
can you boost jump even further? @flat cipher
flat cipher
you can do it like 15 times before running out of stamina, too
ya
you get that but better slightly, but even further jumps
if you pop blue stim on max stamina, you can literally run for 3 minutes straight

im pretty new can i get some help

what map should i do TS 7 on?
ancient falcon
What is aiming sensitivity
I'm changing it around and there is no difference
I tried with and without a scope adsing
also is it a good idea to change to your normal sens relative to the armor you're wearing to compensate for the reduction in turning speed?
flat cipher
ads with optics is fucked rn
well, the compact ones its not, but the bigger ones it is
ancient falcon
why does the game have the ui bug still?
when i right click it gets stuck and theres nothign i can do besides restarting
ancient falcon
can rip slugs 1 shot anyone to the leg?
it has 235 damage
120 to the leg then 115 spread out through the body in 1 shot?
flat cipher
i think legs have the worst blacked damage modifier
ancient falcon
oh right
what is aiming sens though?
I had to turn my sens up since I'm using gen4 armor. They make turning so slow. just why?
celest condor
i think legs have the worst blacked damage modifier
@flat cipher Pretty sure it is stomach. Stomach transfered damage is actually increased iirc.
okay found it.
Arms transfer at 0.7, legs 1x stomach 1.5x

you could just do that not gonna lie

Bots hate me 🙂 Like you I would likely link to the wrong page anyways 🙂
if it works at all for me.
120 to the leg then 115 spread out through the body in 1 shot?
@ancient falcon That is still 335 damage out of a possible 435. Even a stomach shot would be 400 damage, so not enough to one tap.
sorry realizing those number are actually off. since stomach will have different hit points than leg. But should still get the gist of my guess 🙂

granite helm
see i know the basics of the game @fallen hollow
i have 70 hours
How do i request a Sherpa here
edgy phoenix
@granite helm Wassup, what do you need?
granite helm
Hey @edgy phoenix i will problably get a Sherpa to help me further you dont need to waste your time on me i just have a couple big problems that only a Sherpa can fix i believe
edgy phoenix
You die a lot? Happens to all of us at the beginning, do you know how to play costums?
And sherpa is just a rank meaning that an individual has knowledge about the game. There's a lot of other's too
granite helm
Well yeah but i am looking to play with someone in the game while also learning and fixing my issues at the same time which in this server is practically impossible yes i have knowledge about the customs map its just that i have 70 hours in the game and i am still having alot of difficulties
edgy phoenix
Do you play only one map or do you screw around alot?
worldly citrus
does every grenade give 0.2 strenght for each throw? asking that for stun grenade as it's the cheapest. (of course after some throw it stops)
granite helm
I play Resere, Interchange, Customs, and mostly Factory
edgy phoenix
Dont play factory as a beginner, it's a mess in ther
You should first set a goal, what do you want to do in EFT rn?
atomic jewel
@worldly citrus I think Pestily said you get more skill points for the first grenade you throw per raid compared to later ones, separate from the diminishing returns all all skills
worldly citrus
@atomic jewel yes but does the stun grenade give the same bonus or little bit less? as it's the cheapest
granite helm
Right now my goal is to improve my combat skills and overall game knowledge, i have 2.4 mil and i killed a level 43 player by luck in a scav run so i will sell some more stuff once i get to level 10 (i am level 9 at the moment) but i also want to be able to fight other players in a raid without getting killed in less than 1 minute
edgy phoenix
Combat skills come over time, if you set your self to just be good at them you won't experience much. Try some quests
atomic jewel
@worldly citrus I don't think the type of grenade matters
granite helm
Well yeah thats where the issue is, i have 3 quests at the moment but i cant do any of them because either my luck is bad and/or i get killed immediately
i couldnt do a single quest for 5 days
i still cant do it
edgy phoenix
Maybe your route to doing that quest is a suicide route.
granite helm
I mean i try to play more on the safe side and if i find a quest item on a scav i just play safe again and try to extract
but i ALWAYS die
edgy phoenix
And how is he gonna get that if all he does is die?
edgy phoenix
He saw them
granite helm
i watched TONS of youtube guides
thats what everyone says when i have an issue anyways
"watch guides"
edgy phoenix
And you won't find a youtube video telling you that going here is better than going there
pliant elk
well then you gotta stop beeing scared and go for it
edgy phoenix
Bruh, he does go for it
pliant elk
cause if you crouch around the map you are an easy target
granite helm
...
edgy phoenix
He never said he does that
@granite helm GImme a sec, trying to finish this shit ass run for a quest but this is the 5th time i get disconnected
pliant elk
getting killed in less than 1 minute learn the spawns
granite helm
Its all good take your time @edgy phoenix
i get killed in "fights" in less than 1 minute not 1 minute into the game
pliant elk
wow thats long I usually get killed within seconds in a fight if I lose
edgy phoenix
That is a figure of speache
granite helm
even if i manage to kill someone out of nowhere some guy kills me with a supressor gun
edgy phoenix
We all die in seconds in a fight
pliant elk
don't go for the loot then
check your surroundings after the fight
every shot you bascially say hey im here come get my loot
granite helm
i do check my surroundings after the fight and im not a loot goblin
pliant elk
as I said knowledge makes you move faster, more precise, more confident
knowledge is everything in tarkov
you are level 9 its normal to struggle
don't worry about it game is not supposed to be easy, keep playing and you will improve
granite helm
i was level 15 before the wipe
yeah i know the game is meant to be hard
thats why im not complaining
im just trying to find the core of the issue
and try to fix it later down the line
pliant elk
what quest are you on that gives you trouble?
edgy phoenix
You can also play more efficently to save more brain cells
granite helm
i have 3 begginer quests for prapor skier and Therapist
edgy phoenix
@granite helm Come duo golf
bold kernel
Can someone play with me i need to learn new stuff and areas
pliant elk
so probably for customs?
customs is hot lately, lots of pvp, it's late into the wipe not easy for low levels
edgy phoenix
It is not late into the wipe. who the hell tells you that?
pliant elk
try to do some nightraids for questing, makes it a lot easier
bold kernel
caan someone teach me the game i got like some basics
pliant elk
kyle its not that easy
steep learning curve, probs the steepest you ever found in a game
wanton gyro
don't move when you're shooting, be patient in fights, play safe and careful when doing anything
bold kernel
ik i just want some to play withh and teach me a bit
analog pine
For an offline raid, does it not affect your inventory at all? i.e. even ammo doesnt get used
wanton gyro
that is correct
analog pine
ok, tq
wanton gyro
nothing happens to your character
analog pine
so i can safely bring in my best guns to practice?
wanton gyro
yep
bold kernel
Started 2 days i got some basics but i still need some help let me now
edgy phoenix
@bold kernel Help with what?
edgy phoenix
Oh well, you should play more of the game. Don't expect someone to help you with that when you are a beginner.
Set a goal that will make learning more about the game a passive thing
for example doing quests will make you learn about the game like it or not

@bold kernel come to begginers assistance 2 and we can mess around in game, Im making a coffee so Ill be present in 5m or so.

dapper heath
Toz is a different quest
south valve
thanks! and where can i find mp133
south valve
am new too i don't know where to get that
cursive shoal
Anyone have tips for the setup quest? Or just start drinking and dive in
tepid fossil
@old timber @south valve on scavs and flea market
@cursive shoal what’s the details?
bold kernel
Im new to the game will anyone play with me and show me the ropes?
old timber
Fastest way get level 10
long haven
What is the best ADAR ammo for lvl 1?
tepid fossil
I suggest you leave adar alone for now but if you can get m855a1
cursive shoal
@tepid fossil it's the quest to kill 15 pmcs on customs with a ushonka hat, scab vest and shotgun
tepid fossil
Oh
Just go in with the mp 153 and i wish you luck
once you go mosin you can never go back
@bold kernel
strong jolt
SBIH on Woods is giving me suicidal thoughts
strong jolt
yeah that's what I've been doing
seems like if I don't find somebody in the first couple minutes, I don't see anybody ever
tepid fossil
The other maps are cancer though
strong jolt
I'm standing on top of giant rocks and shit, looking everywhere
tepid fossil
Ah that
strong jolt
see I expected woods to be easiest so I did it last
tepid fossil
I have a rotation from woods
I always use
For player s
Woods is all about taking routes/rotations to either avoid players or fight them
strong jolt
interesting
tepid fossil
I find atleast 3-4 pmc’s per raid with it
Most I’ve met was 6
Granted one was a pscav
strong jolt
see on the other maps I was able to nab a couple spots and wait
took some patience but it eventually worked
tepid fossil
Other maps are terrible
strong jolt
with woods I just have no idea where to go
bold kernel
there are few spots where you can get the 100m kills on woods pretty easily. there is one sniper rock where you can overlook the whole sawmill and have a clear vision to players opening shturmans box
tepid fossil
Oh that rock
strong jolt
I've gone to that rock so many times
and I just cannot find anybody
I run around all over the top of that damn thing
maybe I have to get there sooner or something
tepid fossil
I never go to that rock unless I spawn in checkpoint
It’s very late game when I go there
strong jolt
actually there's 2 rocks you could be talking about
one is the small-ish one by checkpoint close o the sawmill
the other is the long skinny rock formation just under scav sniper
I go to both
tepid fossil
If you spawn there you can see guys fighting near scav house
There are 2 spawns there
One in scav house and 2 is the one near the shore
Pmc’s both spawn there most of the time
So if you can wait in scav house then rotate to the other rock after atleast 5 minutes you can probably find the pmc that spawns near the shore in the other rock to your right or in shturman
strong jolt
hmm ok
yeah I think I need to be more effective early on based on spawns in general
such a huge part of this game it seems
tepid fossil
It is
